After getting swept in the World Series, the the city held a congratulatory rally for the team. You would never think that a city would congratulate a team after getting swept in the championship, but this team really deserved the celebration after crawling back from the bottom of the division, winning 21 of 22 games going into the Series, and sweeping the first two rounds of the playoffs.

I usually wouldn’t even consider attending a rally like this, but it was just a couple blocks from office and at a convenient time to swing by just to take photos (the photo above was taken with my camera phone, the Flickr photos were taken with a real camera).

This was a particularly odd event because it took place on Halloween. Ton of people showed up wearing Halloween costumes. This made for some really fun photography, though.

You’ll notice that there were a ton of media folks covering this event. In fact, there may have been more news tools there than Rockies fans.
